The Blackhawks were losing 2-1 in the 3rd period and it was around 10 or 11 pm so I went to bed. Little did I know that the Hawks pulled the greatest thing ever in the Stanley Cup finals. They scored 2 goals in 17 seconds with less than 2 minutes in the game to win the Stanley Cup. I woke up on my birthday which is June 25 to find out that the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup. Even though I didn’t witness it has been imprinted in my head. This was the best day of my life. What’s even crazier is that not only did I watch him win one Stanley Cup with the Hawks but I saw him win two. In 2015 when I moved to Florida the Hawks were playing the Tampa Bay Lighting in the Stanley Cup finals. I remember watching the game on tv with my mom and sister. And I remember them winning it again. I was so excited and happy when they won that I jumped in my pool. Growing up during this had a huge impact on my life, and I fell in love with the sport even more than I did before.

However, it’s sad to see now that the Hawks are in last place right now in the league, but I still love them because they have made me who I am today. They will forever be my team no matter what.

I remember going to different events where I and my friends would play street hockey with other kids from around the area. The Blackhawks were always the talk of the town. From young childhood to young adulthood the Chicago Blackhawks organization also support education, social and emotional learning, mentorship, skills training, and leadership development. When I first started playing hockey the Blackhawks had an event for kids to learn to play hockey and I remember going to that and loving it. I looked up to them as if they were like Batman or Superman. If they weren’t there to encourage kids to try playing hockey I may have never played it. Everyone in my neighborhood started to play hockey and there were days we would play from sun up to sun down. The first time I tried skating I told my mom I wanted to be a goalie and ever since I have been a goalie. There was just something about it that I loved. As I grew up I realized that when I play hockey I have so much fun and I just really enjoy the game. I also played in a couple of tournaments when i was younger that the Blackhawks sponsored. And I even got to meet some of the players. Looking back at it the Blackhawk’s involvement in the community allowed me to find something I will always love and be grateful
